From September 9 to 12, Switzerland is celebrating Breastfeeding Week. We’ll be sharing information, advice, and products with you—but most importantly, stories from moms who have chosen to breastfeed or not. They’ll explain, with courage and complete transparency, the reasons behind their choices. If you have doubts, if you’re hesitating, if you don’t feel supported—or worse, judged—on your breastfeeding journey, these stories will help and reassure you. Motherhood is a unique journey, and all decisions regarding it must make sense to YOU and you alone. Trust yourself.
Why #boobstories?
Whether you’re for or against breastfeeding, it’s a personal matter between you and your breasts. By creating the hashtag #boobstories, we want to talk openly and without judgment about the relationship we have with them. Support us in this initiative by proudly standing by your choices and respecting those of others.
#boobstories: the T-shirt!
To mark Breastfeeding Week, we’ve created a limited-edition T-shirt featuring the hashtag #boobstories. Our goal? To encourage people to speak openly about a topic that’s still too often considered taboo. Support us in this initiative by ordering your T-shirt today.
To each her own #boobstory!
Stay tuned—starting September 15, you’ll discover the #boobstory of four moms who agreed to share their breastfeeding journeys with us. Whether they breastfed or bottle-fed, they’ll explain the reasons behind their choices and how they’re experiencing—or have experienced—the process.
